REC flashes while recording is in progress. • LV (live view): The transmitter shutter-release button can be used for live view photography. • BULB (bulb photography): The shutter on the remote camera stays open while the transmitter shutter-release button is pressed all the way down. • TIME (time photography): The shutter on the remote camera opens when the transmitter shutter-release button is pressed all the way down and closes when the button is pressed all the way down a second time. To view the other receivers in the same group, press and hold the transmitter group button while pressing 1 or 3. 25 Troubleshooting If wireless remote controllers fail to function as expected, check the list of common problems below before consulting your retailer or Nikon representative. The unit does not turn on (no indicators appear in the display): • If the unit is not connected to a camera, confirm that the batteries are inserted in the correct orientation (0 4). If the problem persists, replace the batteries with fresh batteries or with fully charged rechargeable batteries. • If the unit is connected to a camera, confirm that the cable is correctly connected and that the camera is on (0 6). The camera does not respond to the transmitter shutter-release button: • Confirm that the receiver is on the same channel and in the same group as the transmitter (0 8, 10). • If PAIRING is selected for LINK MODE, select PAIRING > LIST and confirm that the transmitter is listed, indicating that the transmitter and receiver are paired. If the transmitter is not listed, pair the devices as described on page 9. • If ID (supported with WR-1 units only) is selected for LINK MODE, confirm that all units have the same name (0 23). • Confirm that the receiver is connected to the camera (0 6). • The shutter can not be released. Check the camera. The unit beeps twice and the camera shutter is not released: • The shutter can not be released. Check the camera. • Check that the receivers do not share the same body number. NOT DETECTED: No paired or linked units in the selected group can be detected on the selected channel. NO RESPONSE: Reattempt pairing after placing the units closer together and confirming that they are on the same channel (0 8, 9). #00 IS DUPLICATED: The current unit ID (body number) is shared by other receivers with the same name. Select a unique unit ID (0 23). 26 D Precautions for Use • Controllers must be securely attached to the camera to prevent camera malfunction. Remove units that are not in use; carrying a camera in a bag or by the strap with a WR-1 attached risks damage to the camera or the WR-1 in the event that the camera is exposed to strong physical shocks or vibration. • Transmitter and camera shutter-release buttons can not be used when cameras other than the D7100 are in remote control (ML-L3) release mode. A Compatibility Wireless remote controllers can not be used with D1-series cameras or the MB-D100. They can be used with the F100, D2X, D2Xs, D2Hs, and D200, but the shutter can not be released with the F100 in self-timer mode, while the D2X, D2Xs, D2Hs, and D200 will temporarily display O if the exposure meters are activated after the unit is attached. 27 Specifications Wireless Remote Controller WR-1 Type WR-1 Supported cameras SLR cameras with ten-pin remote or accessory terminals Wireless Channels 1 (2.405 GHz), 2 (2.410 GHz), 3 (2.415 GHz), 4 (2.420 GHz), 5 (2.425 GHz), 6 (2.430 GHz), 7 (2.435 GHz), 8 (2.440 GHz), 9 (2.445 GHz), 10 (2.450 GHz), 11 (2.455 GHz), 12 (2.460 GHz), 13 (2.465 GHz), 14 (2.470 GHz), and 15 (2.475 GHz) Range (line of sight) Approximate range between WR-1 units at height of about 1.2 m (4 ft) is 120 m (394 ft); varies with weather conditions and presence or absence of obstacles Maximum number of units Up to 20 units (including a maximum of 3 transmitters) can be used at a time Power source Power is supplied by camera if connected; when not connected to camera, unit is powered by two AA alkaline or nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) batteries Power consumption Approximately 1 W maximum Operating environment • Temperature: –20 °C – +50 °C (–4 °F – +122 °F) • Humidity: 85% or less (no condensation) Approximate dimensions 50 × 115 × 27.5 mm (2.0 × 4.5 × 1.1 in.)
